Leadership & Business Coaching for Health Practice Owners—Rooted in Alignment, Not Hustle
Something feels off. Your practice looks successful on paper—but underneath you’re exhausted, burned out, and slowly unraveling. You don’t need another strategy. You need to rebuild your foundation.
Research-Grounded. Trauma-Informed. Built from Lived Experience.
Leadership & business coaching for health practice owners often focuses on strategy, systems, or performance.
But burnout rarely starts there.
It starts in the nervous system.
In identity strain.
In years of leading, caring, and holding responsibility without enough support.
The Rooted Practice helps health practice owners who are successful on the outside—but exhausted, misaligned, or quietly unraveling underneath—rebuild leadership and business from the inside out.
This work is grounded in evidence-based leadership and organizational psychology, trauma-informed coaching, and lived experience as a former seven-figure practice owner who learned the cost of misaligned success the hard way.
From Burnout to Sustainable Leadership
While it sounds nice, a vacation isn’t the answer to burnout recovery for health practice owners. The good news? You don’t have to go anywhere to start healing. Join the Burnout Reset Challenge and start healing, get your energy back and reconnect to your passion for practice again.
Aligned Leadership Workshop
As practice owners we often feel pressure to conform to aggressive business models or “hustle culture” leadership — even if it goes against our nature. The Aligned Leadership Workshop is a self-paced introduction to strengths-based leadership and burnout prevention for health practice owners.
I’m lonely in practice and feel unclear in my purpose/vision
Being the practice owner and leader can feel isolating — especially when no one else understands the pressure of running the show. The Aligned Leadership Group Coaching Program is a 6-week hybrid program combining live group coaching and self-paced lessons to implement sustainable leadership practices in a small group setting.
You take care of everyone else. Now it’s your turn.
What would your practice feel like if it ran in alignment with your strengths and values, not just your to-do list?

That moment when you realize practice isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be…and recognize the need for burnout recovery as a health practice owner
Five years into my practice journey I reached that moment where I had “arrived”. I had a 7 figure practice, I’d just bought a 6,000 square foot “forever home”, I had the team and the income. And yet, I felt dead inside, trapped by the very thing I’d built, knowing in my gut I couldn’t keep going the way I was but unsure how to get out. Insert an ill timed insurance audit, two wrist surgeries, COVID and an eventual bankruptcy, the next five years of my career involved a deep healing process, leaving the profession for a while, and eventually finding my way back to my passion and purpose within chiropractic and healthcare. You can read more of my story here. After a deep dive into a masters in Positive Psychology with a focus in Positive Leadership & Organizational development, I created the Integrated Leadership & Wellbeing Institute to bring burnout recovery for health practice owners to the countless others I’ve found relate to my story.
